Report: Lesser Charge Filed in VenuWorks Theft Case

Curtis Webb, the former director of operations for the Coliseum was charged with a new count of theft Monday as part of plea negotiations on a second felony theft charge related to money he allegedly stole while working for VenuWorks. The Pantagraph reports the newly-filed theft count is a Class 3 felony, a step below the initial charge of theft of government property. Webb could receive a sentence ranging from probation to two to five years in prison if he pleads guilty to the new, lesser charge. Investigation show that a lesser amount than was initially thought was allegedly taken.
